Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta downplayed suggestions of a siege mentality within the squad, emphasizing the team's focus on their own performances.
Sitting seven points clear in the Premier League, Arsenal's pursuit of an unprecedented quadruple remains alive, with the team competing in the League Cup final, FA Cup quarter-finals, and Champions League last 16.
Arteta acknowledged the quadruple talk is difficult to ignore given the packed schedule across three competitions.
Regarding player performance, Arteta expressed full confidence in Bukayo Saka, praising the winger's continued significant impact on the team despite a recent dip in goal scoring.
No new injury concerns were reported, with late decisions pending on Martin Odegaard and Leandro Trossard.
